Texas A&M wants to beat Texas? The days of worrying about improprieties and under the table shite are over?

There's only one man for the job.

Jackie Mother Effing Sherrill.

He isn't even that much older than Saban. They'll be chopping off bull nuts in the locker room in no time.

We are fool, ESPN is, hence we are saying they aren’t the most credible source.

This happens every, single, coaching search.

It always turns out that no, they didn’t have someone lined up.


A&M was dead set on getting Jimbo away from FSU within days after Sumlin blew the UCLA game. It was in the news for months we were going after him.

We knew right away we'd go after Sumlin when Sherman was canned.

Sherman was hired just days after Fran was fired.

Fran was hired quickly after RC was let go.

It's a lock the admin already knows who they are going after.

Makes sense, but not a "white whale". And, no need to rush for that hire. Easy communication and lining up that job in a couple to 3 weeks if needed.



that's the thing about this "white whale" BS. You have to go through back channels right now. Why fire Fisher now if you "already have your guy"?

A&M did this now to get in line for candidates.

I agree 100% but don’t try and convince these fools that. They have a higher IQ, but yet haven’t figured out how to use it. LOL

One coach isn't going to turn A&M around. They've got to get the NIL thing under control. They have to get their own expectations under control.

As great as the tradition was at Alabama, one of Saban's first tasks was to get the boosters under control. Whomever walks into the A&M job has a similar row to hoe. Plus they've got to completely overhaul the roster following the A&M "let's buy a team" debacle.

Aggies, things will have to get worse before they get better. Do you have the patience ?

Texas A&M feels they already have the talent to win. So their expectations are not going to change. Their strategy for hiring the best coach might.

Thats what every fanbase says when their coach gets fired during the season,they have their man. I call BS.They got
rid of JF early because they were affraid that he would beat LSU and it would have looked horrible for A@M to fre him
after that. They DONT have a coach lined up.Ive watched too
many searches to know better.Dont get your hopes up to high
on getting a whale.Very rarely happens.That doesnt mean
they wont get a great coach though.When Saban got hired by
LSU many fans thought WTF,whos that.

Don't want a whale. Hear that there may be a search firm, which would be a real first for A&M. We will see.
I'm pretty certain it is going to be Elko unless he just doesn't want the job. He's a different kind of cat.

I have a filling they already do and when the contract comes out it will blow all the current ones out of the water. Thats how A&M rolls.

A smart 'whale' will wait a bit to see what else opens, not bite at the first shiny hook.
